Can a Simple Question Foolproof Your Life?
When it comes to sorting out the complexities of life, only wisdom can reveal the best path. Let’s face it—we’ve all made some pretty dumb decisions in our lives. For most of us, there are chapters in the past we would like to rewrite. There’s money we wish we had never spent, relationships we wish we had never started, and perhaps a few invitations we wish we had never accepted. Unfortunately, we can’t do anything to reverse the bad decisions of the past. But there is certainly no reason to repeat them either. This six-part DVD and study guide focuses our attention on one crucial question that has the power to goof-proof our decision making from this point forward.
Prepare Yourself.
You are about to be introduced to a question that will revolutionize the way you make decisions.
Speaker and author Andy Stanley poses this question to give you a filter through which to evaluate every decision in every arena of your life. Designed for small group or personal study, The Best Question Ever DVD is a six-part series that includes the following messages:
1. The Best Question Ever 4. Time Bandits
2. Musical Chairs 5. A Little Help from Our Friends
3. Living on the Edge 6. The Best Decision Ever
In addition to containing the original series messages, this DVD is enhanced with curriculum study sessions. Each session includes twelve to fifteen minutes of teaching followed by several discussion questions. The DVD is further enhanced when combined with The Best Question Ever Study Guide.
Story Behind the Book
In an effort to help people broken by bad decisions, Andy Stanley created a series first called Fool Proof. While searching the Bible for answers, he discovered the Best Question Ever. Now, after several years of teaching this principle to his church and through the extended home ministries of North Point Community Church , the DVD and study guide material are releasing to a national audience through North Point’s relationship with Multnomah.

Title: The Best Question Ever will change every decision you make
Review: As I have read through these past reviews, I must say this book gets a lot of criticism because the question that is expressed seems "too simple."However, this simple question will change every decision you will make.Whether you are a teenager, adult, parent or pastor, this book will change you.The best question ever is..."In light of your past experience, current future hopes and dreams, what is the wise thing for me to do?"Seems simple, but it is certainly not easy to do.Based on your past experiences (growing up without a father, being raised in an abusive home, being influenced by siblings addicted to pornography) what is the wise thing to do?Andy Stanley shows that those that are raised around different influences have a greater likelihood of repeating the mistakes others make.So what is his advice?His advice is to ask yourself what is the wise thing to do?As you read this book, he brings up one thought that's so practical that I have suggested others in my life to consider it. Most people don't plan on getting in debt, addictions, or divorces.The problem is that many of us don't plan not to.We live life without limits and that's why we become slaves to sinful nature.This is a lifechanging book that will convict anyone's heart who desires change.

Title: Thought Changing
Review: Everyone should read this, and it is the book I recommend to everyone. I wish I'd have read it as a pre-teen. Andy Stanley presents everything so clearly and in such a fun, real and memorable way. I don't want to give away the book's details, but I can say that what Andy writes in this book has changed the way I think, has enhanced the way my husband and I taught our kids to live, and has helped us live with a much greater degree of wisdom. Don't let its simplicity fool you... besides the Bible, this book has been the most thought-changing book I've ever read.

Title: A must read
Review: Wow! This little book packs a punch. Starting with three verses in Ephesians 4 (but not ending there!) Andy Stanley unpacks a key principle to living the abundant life Christ promised through one simple but profound question: What is the wise thing to do? I was initially hesitant to read this book because frankly it sounded like another "health and wealth" Christian book that promises riches and success if you follow three simple steps that are kind of from the bible, but not really. This little gem is far from that false Gospel. This biblical common sense approach to decision making has profound implications for every area of life and is firmly rooted in the bible. I will be going back through it and using these principles at home and work. If you haven't read "The Best Question Ever" yet it is worth your time and worth your money. Read it!

Title: Andy Stanley writes an easy to read book with relatable material for every leader
Review: As always, Andy Stanley writes an easy to read book with relatable material for every leader, manager, minister or individual. He continues to cause introspection and fuels the desire for self-improvement. There are many self help books out there and some can be mis-leading, yet Andy Stanley has a clear directive in all of his books, "to push us to have a deeper relationship with God while bettering ourselves and in turn improving our relationships around us."

Title: Good book, good quetsion. Common sense, not common practice.
Review: Enjoyed this book and knocked it out in 2 days. Regardless of age, the wisdom within applies. A great question to ask yourself before doing just about anything - a wonderful habit to teach your children. Reflecting back on my own personal life there is absolutely no doubt that certain circumstances and heartache could have been avoided with more mindful consideration up-front. Well written and easy to read.

Title: High quality sermon
Review: I first saw this sermon by Andy Stanley in church - the pastor simply played this, rather than retelling the same words himself. I was so impressed with the message, I wanted a copy for myself.Quality of the video (recording and editing) is very good, including captions of quoted bible verses.The message is powerful in it's simplicity and "common sense." Although the message is inspired by (only a few) verses of the bible, Andy Stanley is not "bible-thumping" through his sermon. It's really more of a "motivational speech" for how to live your life (and encouraging your children to live their own lives) wisely and more successfully.

Title: My own fault for not understanding better what I was
Review: I thought I was purchasing a stand-alone book. Nope. It's kind of hard to follow along with this guide when I haven't seen the videos. My own fault for not understanding better what I was buying

Title: Reality Check NOT a blank Check on LIfe
Review: Andy Stanley takes his time building up to the best question ever and it is worth waiting for. The book is very easy to read and makes allot of common sense as applied to everyday things like money, morality and relationships. Every one of the items, Stanley references with passages in the bible but doesn't over do it. The context of writing would be equally appealing to a believer and also a nonbeliever. Religon or belief is NOT overbearing in the book; Stanley uses everyday activities as a metaphore of life and suggests that mistakes we made unknowingly can be avoided by knowlingly asking, "The Best Question Ever" as a preface in our everyday application of living.
